The streaming video software available from Easyflv.com makes it easy to add video to your website. You can choose from a number of default web video players to make it complement your website or design your own. Easyflv runs on all windows versions, including vista, so there shouldn’t be any problems getting it to work.

 

There is a single version and multitrack version available and both include a batch flv converter to be able to convert existing video files into flv format for efficient web video playback.

 
The multitrack version is ideal for running a series of video tutorials where users can choose to view them in sequence or opt to view any video in the series.

At $49 for the complete package, it offers great flexibility and is easy to use. The single video players are only 3kb in size with the multitrack players only 15kb, so it loads quickly. The video quality output is also surprisingly good for something in this price range.

 

SEO, Tips And TricksFebruary 19, 2008 1:48 pm

One way of increasing your ranking with search engines (which is key to driving visitors to your site) is by the use of links.

Links The first thing you want to do is place internal links on your own site. In this way, you will drive visitors from one part of the site to another with related information. If you are posting articles, try linking to the previous or next one offered. If you have a series of related articles, be sure to link them together to assist visitors in finding the information that they need. If your site includes a site map, be sure to put a link there as well. The advantage of this course of action is that web crawlers will spider all the pages in your site, not just your main page, which will lead to a higher ranking.

In addition to internal links, you will also want to have some links to other sources of information on the Internet. For this, you would want to choose a handful of sites which you consider to be definitive sources of information on a related topic to yours. Write a brief review of each one and be sure to include why someone would want to visit these particular places online. Do they have articles, quizzes, a discussion forum, or a newsletter? Make note of these features so your readers will have an idea of what to expect before they click on the link. List them as sources of more information, favorite places on the Web, or “online resources”.

You will also want to let other webmasters know you have linked to them and ask them to post a link to your site in return. Send each webmaster a personalized e-mail; sending bulk e-mails simply isn’t appropriate in this case. Introduce yourself as the owner of a newly-launched site and explain that you have taken the opportunity to review their site and were quite impressed with it (otherwise why would you be asking for them to link to you?). You have already added a link to their site to your web page and would appreciate a reciprocal link. Some sites provide a banner or button to use for this purpose. Some individuals “sweeten the deal” by offering other webmasters a free product or service in return for a reciprocal link. You will have to determine whether this is appropriate to your site.

Still another way to use links to increase page ranks is through the use of deep links directories. These directories are unique in that they only list pages other than a site’s main page. If you have a series of articles on your site that are on separate web pages, you may choose to submit each one individually to the directory for inclusion.

Hosting, Domain Names, Tips And TricksNovember 26, 2007 3:31 pm

Choosing an appropriate domain name is very important. First and foremost, when it comes to domain names, try to stay away from the silly, stupid, ridiculous or clever. Keep your domain name simple and make it something your customers can remember if they lose the link to your business website.


Take note that, while your domain name on Geocities or AOL may seem like the least expensive way to go, it may also get you dropped from certain search engines. Some search engines ignore domain addresses that reside on these ‘free servers’ or on the ‘cheap’ servers.

Domain Names By Countries

Even if your site is recognized and considered by search engines, a professional domain name that uses your primary company name or associated words is likely to get more attention and be considered as a stable business by your prospective customers.


Purchasing domain names are not that expensive which cost about $100 and there are many companies that can register the name for you, provided it is available and has not already been used by another company.


Using one of your keywords in your domain name can increase your score on some search engines. For example, solderingirons.com could be more effective as Electric-soldering-irons.com, if that domain name was available.


You might also choose to establish more than one domain name using keywords and then link your ‘doorway’ domain sites to your primary site. But you will have to pay for each of the domain name and also the monthly hosting fees. It all depends on the type and size of your business and your competition.


Keep in mind that some search engines disregard ‘doorway’ sites. So put at least a page of content on the doorway site with some useful information and then link it to your primary site. But don’t design it as an empty page. The other reason being, you can have one, three, five, or even more email addresses that all contain your business name, and give your business a professional feel. 


No need for customers to understand how you manage all your email boxes on your domain. They just need to feel your business is dependable and reputable.
